    Default Wargame Interest Check

    I was thinking about starting an RP that takes place on a war-torn continent that was once united under a single King/Emperor, who has passed away without naming an heir. The players represent those nations, seeking to claim the throne and/or the lands of the other nations and kingdoms that once were their allies under a single rule.

    The campaign will have two ICs, one for the courtiers and ambassadors in the courtroom of the once dead king, and the other for the heroes and soldiers out at war. The first is political, where players can form alliances or declare war, but it is a neutral zone for all involved. The second is where heroes, generals, and soldiers can make a name for themselves, all fighting for their people.

    And in the OOC and through private messages, once can direct their troops without the others knowing. Moving troops and such would be turn based, either based on the order players submit their nations, or based on an initiative system.

    Of course, I do not want to step on the toes of some other wargames here, so I can assure you, this will be very different than those.

    Don't worry about stepping on toes it's all cool if there was any worry about stepping on mine.

    Oh this looks like it could be fun. I actually had a world building thing based similarly to this a while ago, and I've always enjoyed this kind of thing!


    Thank you to Alice for making my sig and avi <3

    Could be interesting depending how it's done. any campaign like this that puts player against player needs a fairly tight rule system and also a mechanism to deal with players dropping out.

    @Mfable; With it needing multiple IC's wouldn't it need to be in the Persistent World section? And if it does belong there, then you will need to go through a few more steps.
